Is LionsTab safe?

Low risk

LionsTab sends Chrome top-site URLs to Google's favicon service when opening a new tab.

LionsTab replaces the new-tab page and reads Chrome's topSites list to show links to frequently visited sites. For each displayed site, it requests a favicon from Google with the site's URL included in the domain_url query parameter.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed LionsTab contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
